Summary: Play develops creativity, intellectual competence, emotional strength and stability and feelings of joy and pleasure. The habit of being happy (Piers and Landau 1980: 42-3). This quote comes for a book entitled The Gift of Play and Wiry Children Cannot Thrive Without It. It is a valuable reminder that play does not need to be defined as a set of be haviours but is linked to a process that captures the essence of a known experience. Play is a creative act that enables individuals to learn to think and behave with increasing complexity and flexibility, giving them confidence and a sense of achievement. Through their spontaneous in. teractions, children discover unique and innovative ways to respond to their environment, which need to be valued and understood by those who are nurturing and supporting their development.
